Ennis thinking while still half asleep:
Sure is warm and cozy next ta Jack here in the tent so big and strong 'n warm. Stayed right here next ta me...and he let me....let me have the most private ways with 'm. Look at 'm sleepin' so peaceful like, not snorrin' like a buz saw like K.E., never got no sleep next ta 'm, just breathin' slow an easy. Not hard ta look at neither, ears, dark hair 'n all, smell good too. Sure could get use ta this, 'specially when its cold.
